The situation at home has changed over the last year or so and I've realised I'm still doing way more 'wifework' than I should be. But don't know how to change things, as obviously everyone else is very happy for me to run around after them! And old habits... etc
So, for context:
- one DS has moved out to his own place
- one DS is at uni now (so has learnt to become independent)
- DH has mostly retired (does max 1 day a week in his own business
Just this week I've looked around and thought why the f*ck am I
- still changing all the beds and doing all the laundry (except perhaps one load of DH's sports gear) every week? (DS came home from uni and started putting his laundry in the communal bin again!)
- Still ordering all the food/ planning meals and cooking at least half of dinners?
- organising cleaners/ tradespeople/ waiting in for deliveries
- sorting out social events/ replying to our friends
Meanwhile DH is swanning off on bike rides with mates and DS has reverted to teenagehood, holed up in his room (has done a little bit of work, but not much).
Aargh! Did anyone simply declare one day 'I'm not doing this anymore - sort yourselves out' ?
